  2. This failure constitutes a penalty offence under the relevant legislation.

We have therefore decided to impose a penalty of £5000 (Five thousand pounds sterling only) on your company.

Please pay the above penalty in full within 30 days of the date of this notice to avoid further interest or additional penalties.
